Based on brain research and new
media, the UDL framework proposes that educators design
lessons with three basic kinds of flexibility:

1. Multiple formats and
media are used to present information.

Examples:

Illustrations,
pictures,
diagrams,
video or
audio clips, and
descriptions

2.   Teachers use multiple
strategies to engage and motivate students.

3.   Students demonstrate
learning through multiple performance and product
formats.

UDL calls for

three goals to consider in designing lessons:

1.  Recognition goals: these
focus on specific content that ask a student to identify
who, what, where, and when.

2.  Strategic goals: these
focus on a specific process or medium that asks a
student to learn how to do something using problem
solving and critical think skills.

3. Affective goals: these
focus on a particular value or emotional outcome. Do
students enjoy, and appreciate learning about the topic?
Does it connect to prior knowledge and experience? Are
students allowed to select and discover new knowledge?
